New Theme: Fictive
Fictive is about your style, your look, and your story. With plenty of ways to customize, it’s a great option for a travel blog or personal website.
Today I’m happy to present a new free theme for your blogging enjoyment: Fictive.
Fictive is about your style, your look, and your story. With plenty of ways to customize, it’s a great option for a travel blog or personal website.
Make it unique with a custom header image, a Gravatar, and links to your favorite social networks. Use post formats to dress up your posts, add a custom menu and widgets, or let your content take center stage with a simple fixed-position header.
Read more about Fictive on the Theme Showcase, or activate it on your blog by going to Appearance → Themes.

I like the look of this new theme but I noticed on the left hand side of the image that there were social media symbols but Google+ was not one of them. My blog theme also lacks the Google+ symbol on the home page. Is it possible to add it to the Fictive theme through customization?

Yes indeed! The instructions for adding Social Links will allow you to do that.

I like it, appears to be a bit like “writr” with a cleaner kind of design. The Menu seems to be a unit with the posts. Its nice, Maybe I´ll try it next month, after getting to know “spun” a little better 😀

Nice theme.
A few observations:
I like the way the H1, etc. headings are rendered in a nice brick red colour.
I don’t know what prompted the decision to make the H4 and H5 render as all caps.
I am not fond of the ‘block quote’ text – the light coffee colour is nice but the font itself is very heavy font. It’s OK for a very short quote but looks overwhelming for a longer quote that stretches over several lines.

I like the minimalist design and layout, but I prefer a serif font for body text.

I suppose that I’m just a throw-back of sorts, but I can’t understand why so much attention and effort is paid to creating new themes all the time rather than focusing upon content. It seems to me that the emphasis is on how pretty things look rather than whether what is said there has any weight or meaning. Why not just call all the themes cotton candy of some variation?

Love the responsive menu, up there with Sorbet, great theme, well done 🙂

So happy that it’s free! I really like this one! For the first time I was able to do a Live Demo and it rendered my content beautifully without any customization. That’s never happened before. The only thing I miss is my full-width page options. The readability though makes it almost worth it. I may be back to this one after April.

The mobile version of this is gorgeous, I updated myself right away.
But the mobile version have a search button, which I don’t see in this theme in the web. Where is he hiding?

Good question! You can add a search widget to your sidebar.

I have changed to this theme but can’t seem to change the colour of text, which is too hard to read with my chosen background colour. Can someone have a look and let me know if that’s the case and if so how do I change it? I’m thinking it’s something I’d have to do with an upgrade, is that right? Thanks in advance. http://Www.debz2653.wordpress.com

With the Custom Design upgrade, you can change all the colours (including text), use special fonts, and add custom CSS to make lots of tweaks to the look-and-feel of your site. If you need further help, feel free to post in our support forums.

I really like this theme but I must admit getting the menu thing to work was frustrating. But definitely a great free theme! :3 Might try to figure it out again in the future!

I’ve tried it out for a few days and, though I like it a lot, I find that links within the body of the text are extremely hard to pick out unless you know that they’re there. Because of that, I’m not sure if I’ll keep using it. Pity.

That’s a good point; thank you for your feedback!
